Awakening the Mangekyo

A gentle breeze stirred up dust as the Shadow Clone dissipated, revealing Uchiha Yoru's true form.

With the loss of Medical Ninjutsu to suppress melanin, his full head of white hair visibly began to turn black again.

His black hair swayed in the wind, and the blue Moon mark on his forehead and the two Red demon pattern on each cheek had not yet faded, thus creating this appearance of a combination of Uchiha Yoru and Sesshomaru.

"Great Sword: Samehada!"

Upon seeing the Mist Ninja Greatsword, Ume Sarutobi immediately lit up with greed. Obtaining this greatsword would be an unparalleled honor.

All she saw was fame. Defeating the Mist Ninja and seizing the Great Sword: Samehada from a renowned ninja—wasn't climbing the ranks by stepping on her enemies' reputations the best achievement?

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect the two of you to be worth so much."

When Uchiha Yoru Ume Sarutobi that Uchiha Yoru had taken out the Great Sword: Samehada in exchange without any hesitation, she immediately smiled in surprise.

Then, for some reason, she shook her head and sighed, sounding as if she were disappointed in his lack of ambition.

"Uchiha Yoru! I really misjudged you. I thought you would be a roadblock, but I never expected you to be such a hopeless case. I was even wary of you all along."

At this moment, Ume Sarutobi sighed softly and said, "You, born into Noble Houses, are still so naive, still indulging in romantic love stories Noble Houses young masters and commoner girls. I really feel like I've returned to when I was seven or eight years old at the Ninja Academy."

It has to be said that when Uchiha Yoru chose to hand over the Great Sword: Samehada for the sake of two women, she was immediately disappointed. The formidable threat she had once thought of turned out to be just this?

As Uchiha Yoru watched the other party's slander and ridicule, his face was terrifyingly cold, but he did not hesitate in the slightest, while inwardly he was sneering.

What an idiot! Using the story of a Noble Houses young master and the ugly duckling to mock people—why can't it be the story of Noble Houses young master and a princess?

"Tsk tsk, do you two want to know his real identity?"

As if she could already see the genius Uchiha Yoru being trampled under her feet, Ume Sarutobi slapped Mei Terumi and Tsunade's cheeks with a mocking expression, and even pointed at the threatened figure in the distance.

"This is a genius from our Konoha, born into the Uchiha Clan, the strongest and most Noble Houses family in the Shinobi World — Uchiha Yoru! He infiltrated as Spy, so the person you all know is a fake, just a mask he needs to wear."

"But now it seems that this kid has taken his act seriously and is actually doing it for you."

As if victory was assured, Ume Sarutobi calmly and slowly extended her hands, drawing two ninja swords from the backs of the Root ninjas beside her, and slowly pointing them at the two men.

"Uchiha Yoru, are you going to fight us to the death, or will you obediently surrender?"

The two ninja swords drew closer and closer, clearly about to touch the two men's hearts. In the silent wilderness, Uchiha Yoru, who had been indifferent in the distance, suddenly spoke up just as the sharp ninja swords were about to pierce his chest. At the same time, the two ninja swords stopped.

"What do you want to do!"

"Your hands!"

A similarly cold voice rang out, Ume Sarutobi stared at her opponent with cold apprehension, "I heard you once performed a hand seal with one hand, then I want both of yours."

"Impossible!"

Despite being threatened, Uchiha Yoru maintained his aloof demeanor, as if he were always a high-ranking nobleman, and directly and without hesitation chose to refuse.

Upon hearing such a straightforward answer, Ume Sarutobi shrugged at the two women and gave them a smirk. "Looks like I overestimated your value. You're only worth the price of the Samehada at most, but for someone as lowly as you, it's an honor."

"You don't need to test him anymore. Since you've already said he's Spy who infiltrated our ranks, it's all just an act with us."

At that moment Mei Terumi suddenly spoke calmly, while Ume Sarutobi looked surprised, then shook her head and said, "Did giving up give you courage? Now your beautiful dream has come to an end? What a pity."

When faced with the threat, Uchiha Yoru unhesitatingly drew his Great Sword: Samehada, Mei Terumi seemed to hesitate. At that moment, she even wanted to leave.

Similarly, when the other party refused without hesitation, she calmed down. At this moment Mei Terumi couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly and shake her head, saying, "As expected, let's just treat it as a play."

Just as Mei Terumi was secretly preparing to retaliate, the young Tsunade coldly watched everything. She had seen too much cruelty. This brat was able to exchange such precious spoils for people, which was beyond the expectations of most people, and even beyond her expectations.

Just as the two gleaming ninja swords began to move slowly again, they suddenly came to an abrupt halt!

Tick-tock~

A gentle breeze swept across the empty fields, and drops of blood dripped onto the ground. The Root ninjas all around watched this scene with indifference; their emotions had long been extinguished.

But Ume Sarutobi looked astonished, staring at the distant figure in disbelief, and finally shook her head.

"Is this the pride of your Uchiha Clan? Your words are tough enough, but your actions betray your words. I never expected you to actually do this. To be honest, I really admire you!"

At this moment, Ume Sarutobi put aside her grudges and sighed with heartfelt admiration, "You are truly different. You remind me of White Fang and Orochimaru."

On the wild field, Uchiha Yoru coldly stared at everyone, his Three Tomoe Sharingan already visible in his sockets. Each of his hands pierced a Kunai, and blood dripped continuously onto the ground.

His calm demeanor masked the fact that his hands were not his own; the injury to both hands meant he could no longer freely form hand seals, significantly reducing his combat power.

"White Fang chose suicide under public pressure, Orochimaru remained indifferent and chose to stand by and watch. You're just like them, the kind of person who... how should I put it! A hero!"

Heroes are admirable, even Ume Sarutobi couldn't help but sigh, but she shook her head and said, "Heroes may be admirable, but I can only say that there are too many heroes in this world, and the shadow of a village cannot be a hero."

"To save a village, one needs awareness from multiple perspectives, and even, when necessary, the decision to sacrifice a small number of people to save the majority."

Faced with Ume Sarutobi's long and emotional speech, Uchiha Yoru coldly replied without expression, "Using your Root methods to erase their memories, just as you said, they're nothing but two lowly commoners."

The cold voice spoke sarcastic words, but at that moment, both Mei Terumi and Tsunade were stunned.

Both pairs of eyes stared blankly at the figure in the distance, the Kunai piercing through their palms, and blood dripping continuously.

This brat/ Uchiha gone mad! He's actually doing this for real!

They both knew each other's identities from the beginning, so they viewed everything from the detached perspective of bystanders, even though some things had indeed moved them and they had experienced different feelings.

But all of this is based on their perspective as bystanders!

But in the current situation, it's clear that this kid is involved! And he's genuinely invested!

However, at this moment, Uchiha Yoru's Three Tomoe Sharingan was constantly scanning his surroundings to observe the situation, and his hands were really in pain.

He was an observer from the very beginning, but Mei Terumi and Tsunade thought they were the only observers. Little did they know that all three of them were observers from the start.

The difference is that Mei Terumi and Tsunade believe that Uchiha Yoru was the one in control.

This sudden situation stunned them, as if it were pulling them from the sidelines into the game.

After a long and eloquent speech Ume Sarutobi strolled around casually, as if giving a lecture. When she finished, she genuinely showed admiration.

"Uchiha Yoru, you are a hero, but what the village lacks right now is not a hero, but a Hokage! So I hope you can understand."

"Rest in peace. Don't worry, I will bury them both with you, so that you can live out your fairytale dreams of a noblewoman and a commoner girl in the underworld."

At this point, Ume Sarutobi turned to look at the two women with a complex expression, "As women yourselves, you should be the happiest people at this moment."

After saying that, Ume Sarutobi slowly raised the two ninja swords in her hands again. Seeing this, Uchiha Yoru, who was in the distance, finally showed a change in his cold expression.

"What do you want!"

After hearing Uchiha Yoru's voice again, Ume Sarutobi couldn't help but turn her head and shake her head, saying, "What an arrogant clan. Even though you're in such a sorry state right now, I can still sense that you're still the high and Uchiha. What a pity."

"Your disappearance is exactly what I need."

She casually swung out two ninja swords, two cold beams of light heading straight for Mei Terumi and the young Tsunade's hearts, clearly intending to kill them with one blow.

As she threw her ninja sword, Ume Sarutobi calmly said, "Kill Uchiha Yoru."

Swoosh~

One after another, the figures at the Root tree flew past the target, leaving only afterimages, while Kunai and Shuriken were thrown at the same time.

At this moment, both sides faced the crisis of death. Uchiha Yoru was facing a large number of Shuriken thrown by the Root.

Mei Terumi and Tsunade faced two sharp ninja swords.

Faced with this life-or-death crisis, everyone treated them like ordinary people. Just as the two women were about to use their Chakra to break the ropes and unleash their power, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in their sight. The two women's pupils shrank and they were stunned.

One pair of Three Tomoe Sharingan had merged into one, forming a shuriken, the Mangekyo Sharingan. Under Uchiha Yoru's cold gaze, blood slowly flowed from his other eye. His other Three Tomoe Sharingan had evolved into the Mangekyo.

Dōjutsu: Takama-ga-hara

Blood splattered as a figure suddenly appeared in front of them, two ninja swords emerging from his chest, and hot, scalding blood splattered onto their faces.

At this moment, Tsunade and Mei Terumi were both stunned, their eyes filled with bewilderment and disbelief.

Mei Terumi stared at the scene in disbelief, the warm blood slowly trickling down her cheek and into the corner of her mouth—it was real!

When Tsunade was splashed with blood, although she was now Colorblind and saw the blood as black, the warmth on her cheek and the taste of the blood shocked her so much that a few drops Kakuzu. The taste of the blood directly assaulted her taste buds.

"Not good!"

Faced with the figure that suddenly appeared and blocked the two women, Ume Sarutobi's expression changed drastically. At the same time, the Root ninjas who had reacted also hurriedly turned around to help.

In the blink of an eye, Uchiha Yoru's figure vanished, only to reappear standing in front of the two women.

At this moment, in the eyes of the two women, the Sharingan that appeared in Uchiha Yoru's pupils was full of bewitching beauty, and a line of bloody tears flowed from his right eye, the blood vessels looking ferocious.

"Kakuzu!"

In an instant, Uchiha Yoru grabbed the two women, let out a loud shout, and a black shadow appeared on the battlefield.

Fire Style: Searing Migraine

Wind Release: Pressure Damage

In an instant, the two Ninjutsu combined with Kakuzu Chakra that swept in with the flames, like a hurricane formed from fire.

Rumble~

Under the indiscriminate, all-encompassing attack, flames directly engulfed a large area. The Root ninjas hurriedly dodged, while Uchiha Yoru was also hit.

After unleashing his Ninjutsu, Kakuzu narrowed his eyes and gazed at the center of the flames in the distance.

With a violent cough, blood gushed from his mouth again, and a huge black rib skeleton appeared in the burning flames.

Susanoo

Mei Terumi and Tsunade witnessed everything in the instant the flames struck. As Uchiha Yoru raised his head, his Sharingan spun rapidly, and as two lines of bloody tears flowed down, the Susanoo defensive system appeared around them.

Mei Terumi —an unknown Ninjutsu and those eyes! Tsunade, however, recognized the Ninjutsu. Her pupils dilated in shock as she looked at the two pairs of bloodied, menacing Mangekyou Mangekyo. She had just witnessed everything!

The Mangekyo was opened by them!

Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth as he coughed violently. At that moment Uchiha Yoru bit off the Kunai in both of his hands with his teeth, and then, with the blood still on his hands, struggled to form hand seals.

Although the hand was pierced, this injury affected the hand seals, but it did not mean that it was impossible to form them.

Hai-Xu-You-Shen-Wei

Summoning Jutsu

With a bang, a puff of white smoke from Summoning Beast flashed, followed by the cry of an eagle that resounded throughout the heavens and earth. At the same time, the Root ninjas who were hiding in the distance from the vast range of this Ninjutsu all changed their expressions.

Ume Sarutobi exclaimed in alarm and anger, "No! Stop this brat!"

I thought I was sitting ducks, but I never expected I'd escape. I have to get rid of this brat.

Suddenly, an eagle soared into the sky amidst the flames, while simultaneously, a barrage of Ninjutsu, shuriken, and Shuriken Explosive Tags rained down from all directions.

Fire Style...

Lightning Release...

Rumble~

Amidst the dazzling Ninjutsu, Explosive Tags, and the booming sounds of various hidden weapons, a thick cloud of smoke rose in the air, followed by a bright eagle's cry that pierced through the smoke.

The eagle carried Uchiha Yoru, Tsunade, and Mei Terumi on its back, soaring straight into the sky. The powerful Susanoo protected the Summoning Beast beasts from various Ninjutsu attacks.

"Damn it! Chase after them!"

Watching the fleeing figure, Ume Sarutobi roared furiously, "The opponent is seriously injured and can't get far! Chase after them!"

Kakuzu's shadow had long since vanished from the battlefield. The moment he saw his employer jump out, he fled. It must be said that there is truth to the saying "old but not dead is a thief."

A fierce wind howled across the sky. Blood trickled from the corner of Uchiha Yoru's mouth, and the bloodshot veins in his Mangekyou Mangekyo were clearly visible, a clear result of overuse of his Dōjutsu.

"Lord Yoru."

After the Summoning Beast, the eagle, soared high in the sky, it respectfully spoke, while Uchiha Yoru, with each heavy breath, felt a sharp pain.

"Don't stop, keep flying east."

He slumped to one knee on the Summoning Beast, his hands tightly gripping the waists of the two people, as if afraid that the two ordinary people would fall from the sky.
